it's not personal about president obama. those who offer their judgments about the president as a human being, if the a commanding presence, is he a weak presence, is he a strong leader, a weak leader? the general dignity with which he has purported himself. but, look, it would be nice if we had a slightly less harsh public rhetoric, but as you know and you show on c-span with your studies and shows, this goes way back in american history. george washington, thomas jefferson were viciously attacked. i am not sure it is that much worse now with resident bush and president obama. host: have you met president obama? guest: a couple of times as senator. one time when he was president- elect with a small group of conservative columnists. the one time i met him when he was president was in spring 2011 when i was supporting his intervention in libya. he had a bunch of columnists types, foreign policy commentators and the like into the white house -- the white house had us in for a little session in a room where they pertained to li
